Revising Board of Education’s Model Student Conduct Guidelines
Resolution Number 2004-43
September 21, 2004
The Board of Education adopts revisions to the Model Student Conduct Guidelines in response to legislation and to reflect recent changes in law and emerging best practice principles (2004 General Assembly adopted HB 513 (Marrs) and HB 1331 (Tata) that amended § 22.1-279.6 of the Code of Virginia to require self-defense and hazing, respectively, to be included in the guidelines.) Local school boards are required to adopt and revise regulations for codes of student conduct that are consistent with, but may be more stringent than, these guidelines.
